The SDK can be installed with either npm, pnpm, bun or yarn package managers.
NPM
npm add @speakeasy-api/speakeasy-client-sdk-typescript
# Install optional peer dependencies if you plan to use React hooks
npm add @tanstack/react-query react react-dom
PNPM
pnpm add @speakeasy-api/speakeasy-client-sdk-typescript
# Install optional peer dependencies if you plan to use React hooks
pnpm add @tanstack/react-query react react-dom
Bun
bun add @speakeasy-api/speakeasy-client-sdk-typescript
# Install optional peer dependencies if you plan to use React hooks
bun add @tanstack/react-query react react-dom
Yarn
yarn add @speakeasy-api/speakeasy-client-sdk-typescript zod
# Install optional peer dependencies if you plan to use React hooks
yarn add @tanstack/react-query react react-dom
# Note that Yarn does not install peer dependencies automatically. You will need# to install zod as shown above.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server
This SDK is also an installable MCP server where the various SDK methods are
exposed as tools that can be invoked by AI applications.
Node.js v20 or greater is required to run the MCP server from npm.
Claude installation steps
Add the following server definition to your claude_desktop_config.json file:
generateCodeSamplePreviewAsync - Initiate asynchronous Code Sample preview generation from a file and configuration parameters, receiving an async JobID response for polling.
ResponseValidationError: Type mismatch between the data returned from the server and the structure expected by the SDK. See error.rawValue for the raw value and error.pretty() for a nicely formatted multi-line string.
You can override the default server globally by passing a server name to the server: keyof typeof ServerList optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected server will then be used as the default on the operations that use it. This table lists the names associated with the available servers:
The default server can also be overridden globally by passing a URL to the serverURL: string optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. For example:
The TypeScript SDK makes API calls using an HTTPClient that wraps the native
Fetch API. This
client is a thin wrapper around fetch and provides the ability to attach hooks
around the request lifecycle that can be used to modify the request or handle
errors and response.
The HTTPClient constructor takes an optional fetcher argument that can be
used to integrate a third-party HTTP client or when writing tests to mock out
the HTTP client and feed in fixtures.
The following example shows how to use the "beforeRequest" hook to to add a
custom header and a timeout to requests and how to use the "requestError" hook
to log errors:
This SDK supports the following security schemes globally:
Name
Type
Scheme
apiKey
apiKey
API key
bearer
http
HTTP Bearer
workspaceIdentifier
apiKey
API key
You can set the security parameters through the security optional parameter when initializing the SDK client instance. The selected scheme will be used by default to authenticate with the API for all operations that support it. For example:
Some of the endpoints in this SDK support retries. If you use the SDK without any configuration, it will fall back to the default retry strategy provided by the API. However, the default retry strategy can be overridden on a per-operation basis, or across the entire SDK.
To change the default retry strategy for a single API call, simply provide a retryConfig object to the call:
For supported JavaScript runtimes, please consult RUNTIMES.md.
Standalone functions
All the methods listed above are available as standalone functions. These
functions are ideal for use in applications running in the browser, serverless
runtimes or other environments where application bundle size is a primary
concern. When using a bundler to build your application, all unused
functionality will be either excluded from the final bundle or tree-shaken away.
To read more about standalone functions, check FUNCTIONS.md.
codeSamplesGenerateCodeSamplePreviewAsync - Initiate asynchronous Code Sample preview generation from a file and configuration parameters, receiving an async JobID response for polling.
React hooks built on TanStack Query are included in this SDK.
These hooks and the utility functions provided alongside them can be used to
build rich applications that pull data from the API using one of the most
popular asynchronous state management library.
To learn about this feature and how to get started, check
REACT_QUERY.md.
[!WARNING]
This feature is currently in preview and is subject to breaking changes
within the current major version of the SDK as we gather user feedback on it.
A parameter is configured globally. This parameter may be set on the SDK client instance itself during initialization. When configured as an option during SDK initialization, This global value will be used as the default on the operations that use it. When such operations are called, there is a place in each to override the global value, if needed.
For example, you can set workspace_id to "<id>" at SDK initialization and then you do not have to pass the same value on calls to operations like getAccessToken. But if you want to do so you may, which will locally override the global setting. See the example code below for a demonstration.
Certain SDK methods accept files as part of a multi-part request. It is possible and typically recommended to upload files as a stream rather than reading the entire contents into memory. This avoids excessive memory consumption and potentially crashing with out-of-memory errors when working with very large files. The following example demonstrates how to attach a file stream to a request.
[!TIP]
Depending on your JavaScript runtime, there are convenient utilities that return a handle to a file without reading the entire contents into memory:
Node.js v20+: Since v20, Node.js comes with a native openAsBlob function in node:fs.
Bun: The native Bun.file function produces a file handle that can be used for streaming file uploads.
Browsers: All supported browsers return an instance to a File when reading the value from an <input type="file"> element.
Node.js v18: A file stream can be created using the fileFrom helper from fetch-blob/from.js.
You can setup your SDK to emit debug logs for SDK requests and responses.
You can pass a logger that matches console's interface as an SDK option.
[!WARNING]
Beware that debug logging will reveal secrets, like API tokens in headers, in log messages printed to a console or files. It's recommended to use this feature only during local development and not in production.
